ARTIFICIAL GOOSE-GREASE AND PROCESS OF MAKING SAME.

No Drawing. I

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, FRITZ Wus'rrnAn, subjectof the Emperor of Germany, residing at Rehhorst, near lteint'eld, Holstein, (ice many, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in- Artificial Goose-Grease and Processes of Making Same, of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to the art of producing artificial grease that has not only the taste and particular smell of goose-grease, but moreover possesses its granulousness and similar appearance.

The invention consists of the mixing of artificial butter with several harmless substances, whereby the desired effect is obtained.

The artificial butter in the trade which is nowadays furnished at rather low prices can well be considered as an excellent substitute for natural butter. But there is a justified demand not only for a substitute for natural butter, but also for other cheap artificial lard substitutes, which may be applied in a like manner as soon as such substitute has been fully acknowledged from aphysical point of view.

The artificiahbutter used in this process is that which is prepared and brought on the market in the customary manner. Experience and the experiments have shown that, if hog-lard, onions and pimcnto-grains are added a material is produced which, in taste and smell, is fully equivalent to goosegrease and moreover, even has its appearance, the required softness and its grain. The quantity of hog-lard which to be mixed Specification of Letters Patent.

Application filed December 16, 1911.

Patented July 2, 1911.;

with the artificial butter varies according to the quality of the butter and its composition.

The following proportions may serve as an example tor the process of production: 2 parts artificial butter, l part hog-lard, 1/10 part onions, 1/100 part imento-grains. Both greasy substances are melted and, as soon as they are liquefied, are mixed with each other and the crushed onions and pimento-grains added. After this mixture has been boiled it is clarified, whereupon the product is ready for use. To this may be added a few parts oi natural goose-grease, which however is not absolutely necessary.

The grease produced by this process keeps for a long time, and can be considered as a surrogate fully equivalent to natural goosegrcase, and be applied as such.

'Ilaving thus fully described my invention, what I claim is- 1. The process of making artificial goosegrease which consists in combining about 2 parts of artificial butter. about 1 part. hoglard, about l/lO part of onions and about l/lOO part of pimento-grains, by heating and then clarifyingthe mixture.

2. Artificial goose-grease composed of about 2 parts oi artificial butter, about '1 part of hog-lard, about 1/10 part of onions, and about l/lOO part of pimcnto-grams.

in testimony whereof I atlix my signature in the pre nee of two witnesses.
